t3arsCulprit, i am facing that problem too. The phone keep on restarting when boot up. The firmware is 1.2, and i think it was a culprit of the main failure.

ok nvm. I browse through samfirmware and try to download 1.2 then DIY to reflash back. But which version to look? PDA or CSC?


Added on February 25, 2012, 7:04 amHi all, those who still on 1.2 and updated through the kies then do me a favor, please. Type *#1234# to check your firmware then tell me so i can have a search exactly of the firmware. Million thanks.


Added on February 25, 2012, 6:19 pmOk guys, i successfully flashed to 1.2 S8500DXKE1 Open Asia, everything is settled. Weary...

Chinese Input, when a pinyin combination is very long, the pinyin and the word is not correct. Refer attached Image
When uninstall apps, all apps data in memory card will be clear (previous Bada 1.0 and 1.2 will remain)

wow, only two combination of pinyin already failed to recognize the proper words.
Do you mean that when uninstall 1 of the apps, will cause all the apps to be wiped?

Think I will do a hard reset after I reflash, hope to flash rom with polaris office and the camera with front camera activated.

Guys, would you mind to suggest me the any good latest custom rom available? Kinda out of track now.. (Hopefully support chinese, so that my chinese songs' names display properly...)
*
then do you try this?

so in short, the firmware from badadownload.com is just a bit better than a firmware from http://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3417 ? As the former firmware at least can display the Chinese characters properly.
